Radian (rad)

A radian is the SI unit of angular measure. One radian is the angle created when the arc length equals the radius of a circle.

Arcsecond (arcsec)

An arcsecond is 1/60 of an arcminute, or 1/3600 of a degree. It is commonly used in precise scientific and astronomical contexts.

How to Convert Radians to Arcseconds

Conversion factor:

1 rad=206264.80625 arcsec1\,\text{rad} = 206264.80625\,\text{arcsec}

Inverse factor:

1 arcsec=0.00000485 rad1\,\text{arcsec} = 0.00000485\,\text{rad}

Example

Convert 15 rad to arcsec:

arcsec=rad×206264.80625\text{arcsec} = \text{rad} \times 206264.80625
arcsec=15×206264.80625\text{arcsec} = 15 \times 206264.80625
arcsec=3093972.09371\text{arcsec} = 3093972.09371
=3093972.09371 arcsec= 3093972.09371 \, \text{arcsec}
